SUMMER GIRL'S TRIP TO LA PART 1

After an adventure in Laguna Beach, it was time to go to my second home- LA! We stayed at the super beautiful and artsy Mondrian Los Angeles, located in the heart of West Hollywood on the Sunset Strip. I loved the location of this hotel, because it's great to be centrally located in West Hollywood. Since I find myself in the WeHo and Beverly Hills area the most, this hotel was absolutely perfect. 

Our suite was stunning. Waking up to the view of gorgeous LA and Downtown in the skyline was magical. The rooftop pool is so beautiful with the same incredible LA views. The rooftop also has a bar called Skybar. My favorite part of the hotel was the restaurant, Casa Madera, that offers a Mediterranean cuisine with Mexican influences. The views and decor really set the vibe at Casa Madera. I highly recommend the tacos and the margaritas! 

 I spent my time going to meetings, attending showrooms with clients, shooting beautiful content, and of course eating at great restaurants. Since my girlfriend Angie had never seen Beverly Hills, I took her to Rodeo Drive where we created beautiful content, ate, got endless coffees, and did some light shopping. We also checked out one of my favorite hotels, the Beverly Wilshire where they shot Pretty Woman. It's so fun when I take time off to be a tourist! (Read LA Part II here.)

Staycation At the National Hotel Miami Beach

 

Last month I stayed at the, National Hotel Miami Beach, located in the heart of South Beach on Collins Ave. Believe it or not, living in Miami for ten years now, I had never been to this hotel before. It is now one of my top ten hotels in all of Miami. It's an adults only hotel, and I loved my stay!

 I did a quick one night staycation with my friend Angie, & believe it or not, we managed to do everything we wanted to do. We checked in on a Friday afternoon, and immediately hit the pool and ordered lunch. The pool bar has the best menu, with a lot of food options- which is very rare for a lunch menu. We ordered so much food for lunch, enjoying a relaxed day in the Miami sun. 

Towards sunset, we headed to the beach and got two chairs to truly relax by the ocean with our drinks. I of course had Louie with me, who thoroughly enjoyed his stay as well. Louie loves the beach! 

For dinner, we ate at the hotel's Spanish restaurant, Mareva 1939. Mareva 1939 was an amazing experience, with live music and the best paella - you will feel like you traveled to Spain for the evening. The next morning, I took Louie for an early 8am walk along the beach. We really enjoyed it! It makes me want to live on the beach. After breakfast on the balcony, it was time to check out and go home.  (Watch my Nationl Hotel Staycation vlog here.)
